Narsha, the Ultimate Temptress

Meet the new model for Levi’s Bodywear line! For Marie Claire’s December issue, Narsha channels ultimate temptress in jean shorts and unbuttoned shirts. If I were to launch a lingerie line I would definitely hire Narsha for her sexy bodyline and glamorous style. I love her body language in these shots because it speaks of quiet sensuality instead of the in-your-face sexy that I see in most magazines.

Narsha is known as an “adult-idol” and I love her all the more for it. Here is a grown woman who embraces her age and her sexuality. Instead of trying to act half her age or use aegyo to show a “cute” image, she sets herself apart with her confidence and “naughty behavior”. This may be the western sensibilities talking but I honesty can’t stand aegyo. It’s frustrating to see beautiful grown women act like children because people find it “cute” and “youthful”.

It’s also disturbing that men find such acts desirable and encourage it. I guess in a place where women are considered second-class citizens, it’s more attractive for women to act like pliable children than strong fierce adults that Narsha embodies here.

It’s frustrating to see beautiful grown women act like children because people find it “cute” and “youthful” – Sooo True!

I agree that it’s nice she’s acting her age, but this is still still objectifying and still selling sex. A woman should be seen as a “strong adult” doing things that don’t involve using her body, as Narsha is doing here.

Um, it’s a bodywear line aka lingerie. Did you want her to be covered head-to-toe in a freakin’ snuggie or something? Alluding to a bit of a sex appeal isn’t a BAD thing. We’re all human and we all have sexuality; it’s not something to be ashamed of.

Selling things such as toothpaste and soju with women’s bodies is unacceptable but in this case the products being sold here are women’s undergarments; it’s reasonable then that Narsha would use her body to sell the items.

She looks amazing! It is definitely a major plus to have a kpop idol act their age- and I really feel that Narsha really shows a lot of her true self when in the media, unlike some idols who I feel act a little too OTT….
